Auroracoin is a cryptocurrency launched in February 2014 as an Icelandic alternative to bitcoin and the Icelandic króna.〔〔〔 Its unknown creator or creators use the pseudonym Baldur Friggjar Óðinsson (or Odinsson).〔〔〔 They stated that they planned to distribute half of auroracoins that would ever be created to all 330,000 people listed in Iceland's national ID database beginning on March 25, 2014, free of charge, coming out to 31.8 auroracoins per person.〔〔 Auroracoin was created as an alternative currency to address the government restrictions on Iceland's króna, in place since 2008, which severely restricts movement of the currency outside of the country.〔 Iceland's Foreign Exchange Act also prohibits the foreign exchange of bitcoins from the country, according to a government minister.〔 ==History== The pseudonym Baldur Friggjar Óðinsson is based on Norse mythology, referencing Baldur, his mother Frigg, and his father Odin.〔 By using the Kennitala national identification system to give away 50% of the total issuance of auroracoins to the population of Iceland, a process dubbed the "airdrop", the developer hoped to bootstrap a network effect and introduce cryptocurrency to a national audience.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=As Auroracoin "Airdrop" Approaches, What Does It Mean When A Nation Adopts A Cryptocurrency? )〕 On April 22, 2015 in accordance with the original airdrop plan, the unclaimed pre-mined coins were verifiably 'burned' or made inaccessible by being sent to the address AURburnAURburnAURburnAURburn7eS4Rf. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Auroracoin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
